Genesis Cabrera has opted for free agency after being designated for assignment by the Mets. The left-handed reliever, who joined New York via a minor league contract, was called up to fill a gap in the bullpen due to injuries. Averaging 96 MPH on his fastballs allowed for reasonable performance during his brief MLB appearance. However, persistent command issues and a high walk rate impeded his chances on the roster, resulting in his unclaimed status on waivers. It seems Cabrera will likely sign another minor league contract moving forward.
Cabrera averaged 96 MPH on his fastballs, leading to decent strikeout rates; however, poor command and high walk rates have hindered his effectiveness.
Despite decent short-term results in the majors, Cabrera's inability to sustain a spot on the roster reflects ongoing command issues that have plagued his career.
